Heres the setup: I have a router downstairs to share the connection
b/t the downstairs and upstairs computers, but there is only one
ethernet cable running up, and I want to wire two computers to it. The
computer connected to the router has two ethernet cards. Can I use
one to connect w/ the router, and one to share the connection with a
second computer? I tried to wire the two computers together via the
second card, and enable ICS on the "host" computer. The connections
are labeled "disconnected"; the comps won't recognize that they are
wired to eachother. Maybe because the router is set up to assign IP's
to single comps, etc, I can't share that connection?? I hope I made
some sense here.. lemme know if you can think of anything?
